Why stay

Camps Bay, a trendy suburb of Cape Town, sits between the majestic cliffs of Table Mountain and the navy blue Atlantic Ocean. POD Boutique Hotel is located directly across from Camps Bay Beach. Choose between 15 beautifully designed rooms, with modern live-edge wood and granite touches, and floor to ceiling glass windows. Three suites have private plunge pools, and the POD's wraparound pool terrace overlooks the ocean. Enjoy breathtaking views of the water or the 12 Apostles Mountain Range, while sipping a Caipirinha.

Why wander

You don't have to wander far to enjoy true South African nature at POD, with the ocean in front of you and the mountains at your back. Cape Town is famous for its beautiful beaches with white sand and clear water. Visit Camps Bay beach, minutes from the hotel, for a Mediterranean vibe and great restaurants. The Clifton Beaches are characterized by dramatic cliffs and are perfect for yacht watching. Finally, for a romantic picnic visit Llandudno Beach, located at the base of the Twelve Apostles mountain range. To venture out for the day, take a trip to Robben Island to see a wide spectrum of seabirds and mammals, or Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden - the most beautiful garden in Africa. For those living an active lifestyle and looking for adrenaline, take a surfing lesson or see the beautiful Cape Town coastline from up high, while skydiving.

Indulge in

Caipirinhas on the beach. Visit The Cod Father in Camps Bay for great sushi and fresh fish cooked to order. While in the Winelands, visit The Tasting Room, one of the top 50 restaurants in the world, offering creative high-end fare or Babel - for fresh and heathy food from their personal garden.
